Correct usage of INotificationManager

[jelum 34]

Hi,

Where can I find correct usage examples of INotificationManager? I want to notify a user about problems with a token

Hi, you could try this:

            var notification = new NotificationRequest
            {
                Date = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow,
                Description = "My description",
                Title = "My Title"
            };

            _notificationManager.SendNotification(notification);

How the user will know that the notification came from my plugin?

You'll have to use the title and description as best you can to accomplish that.

I was not able to find any documentation about MediaBrowser.Controller.Entities.InternalItemsQuery object and namely property Recursive. What item is Recursive? Series, since it may have folders for seasons inside. Is it somehow applicable to Movies or other item types with simple structure (only one file)?

Can you please explain it, point to documentation, or share it?

What are you trying to do?

I want to find:

1. all libraries with type Movie, Series, Mixed

libraryManager.QueryItems(new InternalItemsQuery
{
    IncludeItemTypes = new[] { nameof(CollectionFolder),nameof(BoxSet) },
    Recursive = false,
    HasPath = true,
    IsFolder = true,
    IsVirtualItem = false
});

2. all collections with a specific name

libraryManager.QueryItems(new InternalItemsQuery
{
    IncludeItemTypes = new[] { nameof(BoxSet) },
    Recursive = false,
    Name = collectionName
});

3. Movies and Series from a specific Library having specific Provider IDs

return libraryManager.QueryItems(new InternalItemsQuery
{
    IncludeItemTypes = new[] { nameof(Movie), nameof(Series) },
    AnyProviderIdEquals = providerIdList,
    Recursive = false,
    IsVirtualItem = false,
    ParentIds = librariesIds,
    HasPath = true
});

4. Same as 3, but from all Libraries, so I removed 'ParentIds' property.

[Luke 40094]

Your queries for #2, #3 and #4 all look good, but just change Recursive to true.

[Luke 40094]

For #1, just remove boxset as one of the types you're requesting and then I think it should work.

Thanks, I'll try

@jelumplease let us know how this goes. Thanks.

@Lukelooks like it does what it has to do. I'll update you in case will find any strange behavior. Thanks for the help once again
